What It Is

You sign up for the affiliate programs of online shopping sites (the creator names Lazada and Shopee in the Philippines, and Amazon elsewhere) or an affiliate network that lists many companies. You build a Facebook page, pick products you like (her example is shoes), write a short description or recommendation, and post them with your affiliate link. When followers click and buy through the link, you earn a percentage of the sale. Earnings grow with the size of your page and how often posts get shared and clicked.

The Pitch

The creator presents it as the option for people with no capital who are online a lot and want to stay at home. She says many people earn from it and that a page with many followers makes it work better.

Who It’s Best For

People with no startup money who already spend time on Facebook and enjoy recommending products, especially in markets served by Lazada or Shopee.

The Truth (as we see it)

Affiliate marketing through a social page is legitimate and cheap to start, but the commissions per sale are small (the creator herself admits it is not big per click), so meaningful income depends on building a large, engaged following, which takes months. The video describes the idea only briefly and gives no income figures, posting schedule or growth method. Commission rates and program rules on Lazada, Shopee and Amazon change often, so check current terms before investing time. The video is in Filipino and labeled a repost, so some details may be older than the upload date.
